Question:

The topic is same as before CONTACTLESS BIOMETRICS. this is the extension of the 1st assignment. in this current assignment, it is the LITERATURE REVIEW.

TASK 1 Literature Review

1. Write a Literature Review for your Capstone Topic following a set structure. The Literature Review is a critical examination of the most relevant, recent and scholarly research on the topic area that is not just a summary of the articles you have read on done in Topics 1 to 5.

2. For Group Work OPTION teams only: Assessment Item 3 Literature Review is done INDIVIDUALLY by ALL students and will be combined and included in the final Group Capstone Project Report.

3. Ensure that the Literature Review submitted by you is your own work and has not been submitted elsewhere and comply with the University's requirements for academic integrity.

4. You can get help in Writing a Literature Review from the ITC571 Modules tool and other study advices and tips from:

1. Study Resources (PDF files to download): https://student.csu.edu.au/study/resources

2. APA style Referencing from https://student.csu.edu.au/study/referencing-at-csu.

3. The CSU Library website for LibGuides in Information Technology, Computing and Mathematics at https://libguides.csu.edu.au/cat.php?cid=66969

4. EndNote Bibliographic software and tutorials LibGuide at https://libguides.csu.edu.au/endnote

5. Review the emerging technology (use internet, magazines, news articles, online databases, eBooks) and submit a 2000-word review of the literature on your topic.

6. Templates are available in the Resources section or from your lecturer to help guide you through the process of extracting information from a collection of articles.

7. A good place to start a collection of articles in your review of the literature is via the PRIMO search tool located on the CSU Library website athttps://www.csu.edu.au/division/library

As an example, the Capstone Topic PRIMO search on a topic like "near field communication applications" returned the following list of very recent journals, books, conference proceedings and eBooks related to the Topic:

Library Resources

Information Technology Journal Databases: https://www.csu.edu.au/division/library/find-info/databases/subject/infotech

Information Technology & Computing LibGuides : https://libguides.csu.edu.au/itc

The following questions may be useful while reviewing the topic:

1. What is the new technology?

2. What does it do and what are the special features it has?

3. When is it coming out in the market and how much will it cost?

4. What industry will the new technology affect? (Medical, agricultural, computer, business, etc....).

5. In your opinion, will the new technology be beneficial to society? Why or why not.

6. What did you learn from a critical analysis of your sources of information on this new technology?

TASK 2 Originality Report and Questions

1. Generate a Turnitin originality report and submit this report via EASTS;

2. Answer the following questions to interpret the Turnitin originality report. The questions can be found through the following link:https://www.academicinternational.org/teaching/turnitin.pdf

3. Submit your question answers via EASTS.

Because the sophisticated use of sources involves a complex set of research, critical thinking, and writing skills, you should expect to take several years to master them. Turnitin can be a helpful tool in this developmental process. You should use your originality reports as feedback on a first draft so that you can improve your use of sources before submitting the final draft for marking.

Interpreting the Turnitin Originality Report:

After you submit your draft to Turnitin for self-checking, you should look carefully at the originality report so that you can improve on your use of sources. Your essay will be on the left side of the screen, and the matching colour-coded sources will be listed on the right. Then you can make the necessary changes to your essay before you submit the final draft for marking.

What does a well written literature review contain?

That is a research topic on its own, however I recommend the list of SIX structural elements below are found in most well written literature reviews:

1. Interpretation and evaluation of an overview of recent trends in emerging technologies and innovation;

2. Evidence of literature searches and critical analysis of the literature in the chosen capstone topic;

3. Critical reflection and synthesis of complex information, problems, concepts and theories in the chosen topic;

4. Original opinion on the benefits of your capstone project to others;

5. Reflective comments on what was learnt from a review of the literature;

6. Use of correct citations and referencing conforming to recognised referencing format.
